The problem with loans are you have to repay them. Giving out loans as a social safety net is a cruel joke. It just makes people worse off in the long run.

Zero percent interest loans over a long enough repayment period (eg. ten years) would work though. It allows spreading the immediate loss in sales over a much longer period.

Not that it would happen though.
